Series: Trinity of Blood #2

After reading the previous book, I couldn’t wait to get my hands on this because I need more of Max and Damon. It’s been 100 years since they met, and now they are owners of a gothic clothing store called Sizzling Discourse, which wasn’t what I was expecting them to be doing. I also wasn’t expecting them to be having a bit of relationship issues, but I should have since Damon struggled with his insecurities in the first book.
These two still love each other so much but Damon has let his insecurities about being wanted and loved forever get into his head. He also is struggling with wanting to submit completely to Max but being afraid to let himself. I love Damon so much and it hurts to see that he has been struggling for so long with his insecurities and fear of rejection, especially when Max worships him. While a third won’t fix their issues, we do see that it helps Damon accept himself a little more and finally let Max in, which I was so happy with.
That leads us to Star, who was fantastic. I loved her so much, especially since she was finally being true to herself and embracing the style she really wanted. She was bold, sassy, and just so accepting of everything. While she won’t fix all of Max and Damon’s problems, we do see that she helps them be able to start to work through the issues, which is fantastic. I also really loved how bloodthirst Star ended up being and that she let Max take out the trash of an ex-best friend.
Basically, this was a fantastic and steamy continuation of this series. I am really loving these three and look forward to reading the next book to see how their relationship progresses. Also I really love how these are all set in different eras and we can see the progression of their relationships, style, and personalities.
